It looks great Alex. Good luck with it. I was going to enter the exhibition too, but didn't have time to do it.

Very artistic piece Alex! Brilliant idea in being able to pack it flat, too. Better luck next time - sometimes the things that win in comp's leave everyone wondering how they did...and so many other brilliant pieces overlooked.
Cheers,
Jill

hi Alex,
I saw the piece in AWR - it did look very nice. The paper making would have been fun.
I reckon the only reason you didn't win was you didn't use that dodgy backdrop you used in the box comp that make you look like your head is coming out of the top
Very good effort. I like the simple style of the piece with oyster inlays.
Cheers,
Dave...but together with the coffee civility flowed back into him

Nice design Alex. Bad luck re the comp.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

Looks good to me, and definitely worth a shot.
